Sequence settings problem

In the original sequence of DV-NTSC 16:9 Anamorphic, we submitted footage that is 24PA, 480x720.

Here is the issue...
in a NEW sequence created, we changed the settings by accident. Now, the footage seems to be letter boxed.
We had a sequence that was 16:9 Anamorphic. We copied and pasted some of this footage to a new sequence and forgot to select the 16:9 anamorphic button in the format settings box. This now leaves us with a letter box ON THE ORIGINAL PREVIEW OF THE FILE. It follows it to the time line window. Keep in mind, this is the exact footage used in the first sequence above.

In an attempt to fix this we went back and selected the 16:9 button. It just squished the footage WITH the letter box.

How do we remove this letter box back to the original settings of the ORIGINAL sequence without having to re-cut the footage in a new, properly formatted sequence?

Oh, and using TC wont save this.... :S

Select the clips... right click (control click) select REMOVE ATTRIBUTES... make sure DISTORT is the only thing selected.

Should clear it right up.
